Capturing Soul in
Shadows & Light
Hand-drawn, hyper-realistic charcoal portraits. I create custom, heirloom-quality pieces from client photographs, capturing emotion and detail in the timeless medium of charcoal.
The Artist Behind the Dust
Hello, I'm Neha, a professional artist, specializing in hand-drawn charcoal portraits. For me, charcoal is not just a medium; it's a way to freeze time. My journey began with simple sketches and evolved into a passion for hyper-realism.
Every smudge and stroke is intentional. I strive to capture not just the likeness of the subject, but the story behind their eyes. Whether it's a beloved pet, a wedding moment, or a memorial portrait, I treat every artwork with the respect it deserves.

How long does a commissioned portrait take?
Typically, a standard portrait takes 2 to 4 weeks from the approval of the final reference photo. Complexity and size may extend this timeline. I will provide a specific deadline upon booking.
What kind of photos do I need to send?
High-resolution images are best. Ensure the subject is well-lit and the eyes are in sharp focus. If you are unsure which photo to choose, feel free to email me multiple options, and I can help you select the best one.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes! Charcoal drawings are sprayed with a fixative and carefully packaged in flat, rigid boxes to ensure they arrive safely anywhere in the world.
